"I often take these French bread pizzas to church picnics or potluck suppers and there is never any left," writes Lou Stasny from Poplarville, Mississippi. "When I fix them for the two of us, I freeze two halves in foil to enjoy later."

Tip

Cutting Green Onions

I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia

I made this last night. It was a big hit. Both my parents said it was good. It was easy to make, but very messy. I would definitely make this again, but next time, I think I would use crescent rolls rather than the French Bread. I also found the cooking time to be a little off.

I made this for a happy hour. It's perfect since it can be done ahead of time and just popped into the oven while everyone visits. I did half with the peppers and half without for the weak eaters. Everyone LOVED it! It was gone as soon as I put it out.
